Diophantine m-tuples and Elliptic Curves

This book provides an overview of the main results and problems concerning Diophantine m-tuples, i.e., sets of integers or rationals with the property that the product of any two of them is one less than a square, and their connections with elliptic curves. It presents the contributions of famous mathematicians of the past, like Diophantus, Fermat and Euler, as well as some recent results of the author and his collaborators. The book presents fragments of the history of Diophantine m-tuples, emphasising the connections between Diophantine m-tuples and elliptic curves. It is shown how elliptic curves are used in solving some longstanding problems on Diophantine m-tuples, such as the existence of infinite families of rational Diophantine sextuples. On the other hand, rational Diophantine m-tuples are used to construct elliptic curves with interesting Mordell–Weil groups, including curves of record rank with agiven torsion group. The book contains concrete algorithms and advice on how to use the software package PARI/GP for solving computational problems. This book is primarily intended for researchers and graduate students in Diophantine equations and elliptic curves. However, it can be of interest to other mathematicians interested in number theory and arithmetic geometry. The prerequisites are on the level of a standard first course in elementary number theory. Background in elliptic curves, Diophantine equations and Diophantine approximations is provided.

Release Date: 2024-12-02
This book collects original research papers and survey articles presented at two conferences on the same theme: the International Conference on Class Groups of Number Fields and Related Topics, held at Kerala School of Mathematics, Kozhikode, Kerala, India, from 21–24 October 2021 and then from 21–24 November 2022. It presents the fundamental research problems that arise in the study of class groups of number fields and related areas. The book also covers some new techniques and tools to study these problems. Topics in this book include class groups of number fields, units, Ankeny–Artin–Chowla conjecture, Iwasawa theory, elliptic curves, Diophantine equations, partition functions, Diophantine tuples, congruent numbers, Carmichael ideals in a number field and their connection with class groups. This book will be a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers in mathematics interested in class groups of number fields and their connections to other branches of mathematics. It also attracts new researchers to the field and young researchers will benefit immensely from the diverse problems discussed in this book. All the contributing authors are leading academicians, scientists and profound researchers. This book is dedicated to Prof. Michel Waldschmidt, a renowned French number theorist, on his 75th birthday.
